Did Trump ever say he would pay off the National debt in 8 years?

Do you know when? I don't recall that. But, there are a world of things I don't know / recall.

Found it.

and:


quote:

Trump told radio host Joe Pags over the weekend that he will do this by putting the squeeze on Japan and appointing “great people” to cut the budget of each federal department “2 or 3 percent.” Such a plan, Trump said, would be “very easy” to pull off.

If you know anything about Trump’s businesses, paying off debt isn’t in his playbook

If he did say this, and I would love the link, I don't think your people will like the process.

Someone will have to do the work that the Americans didn't have to do after the illegals are deported.

You would rather have to spend billions to put a bunch of Mexicans and Euros out than have zero on the national debt?

My word....

fake liberal BS from crazy town manufacturing stuff to say gotcha, you failed

he never said anything like that, in fact, what he did say was, it wasnt realistic to think that but it could be possible to greatly reduce it and start us on the path of completely eliminating the debt in the very near future if they got, and kept, spending under control, and they continued to do things to grow the economy
